Simple problem.
1996 Plymouth Voyager
Sometimes it starts (cranks over) - sometimes it doesn't
I can hear the starting relay clicking.
The starter relay still clicks if I am out of park or neutral.
I can jump directly to the starter solenoid and with the key on, she will start.
I suspect it is the neutral/park switch.
Where the heck is that switch?
What else could it be?
:uhoh:

The starter relay will not click if the nuetral switch is defective. So I would look at connections or starter.

Try this: put the car in drive and hold your hand on the relay. It will click when you turn the key to the start position.

The connections to the starter are fine.

I can get it to start now by holding the key to the start position and banging on the dash board left side. LOL
